19Chapter 5 - Enrollment procedures for international students
Chapter 5 - Enrollment procedures for
international students
Students holding a qualification obtained abroad, after passing the admission or evaluation
process (if required), can enroll in any program the Tor Vergata University of Rome offers,
available at: http://web.uniroma2.it/module/name/PdnHome/navpath/OFF.
The first step is to obtain information about procedures and deadlines, which may differ for
every single program, reported in the respective calls published on the website:
http://web.uniroma2.it/module/name/Content/newlang/italiano/navpath/OFF/section_parent
/5365.
Enrollment in Italian universities is regulated by ministerial procedures, which establish
different access procedures for EU and non-EU students resident in Italy holding a
foreign qualification, non-EU students resident abroad (student visa
applicants),“Marco Polo” Programme Chinese students holding a foreign
qualification, and non-EU students holding an Italian qualification.
Detailed information is published on the ministerial website at:
http://www.studiare-in-italia.it/studentistranieri.
IMPORTANT
In order to enroll in a course at the Tor Vergata University of Rome, foreign students holding
a qualification achieved abroad shall have to submit a statement of comparability issued
by CIMEA (Centro di Informazione sulla Mobilità e le Equivalenze accademiche) or a
Declaration of value issued by the Italian competent authority.
Comparability refers to identifying the level of the foreign qualification based on the
framework established by the Bologna Process and on the EQF (European Qualifications
Framework). The mentioned comparison does not ratify the formal recognition of the foreign
qualification within the Italian system or by the Tor Vergata University of Rome. However, it
is a useful indicator for the evaluation of the qualification for the purpose of gaining access to
higher education.
The Tor Vergata University of Rome and CIMEA have made an agreement for the issuing of
a statement of comparability for final school and university qualifications obtained abroad.
Students can access the service by visiting the CIMEA website through the following link:
https://cimea.diplo-me.eu/torvergata/#/auth/login.
ITALIAN LANGUAGE COURSES
The Tor Vergata University of Rome provides Italian language courses for international
students. Students can find out all the opportunities to improve their Italian by checking the

programmes, it is compulsory to hold a diploma obtained abroad after a minimum of 12
years of education and which allows you to enroll in a university in your Country. In cases
where the local educational system provides shorter education programmes, you must prove
you have attended university, and passed the exams required, so as to meet the 12-year-
education requirement, or you must hold a post-secondary study qualification obtained in
non-university higher education institutes. It is additionally required that you pass an
academic qualifying examination, when required in your Country (i.e. GAO KAO in China;
Vestibular in Brazil; Selectividad in Spain; etc.).
A pre-school year can also be considered a 12-year equivalent if the attendance was
compulsory and part of the curriculum, and also in cases where the pre-school program was
